[Intro]

It's like whatever I do (Ooh)

Just can't get through to you (Ooh, ooh)

I'm never gonna tell you nothing wrong (Ooh, ooh)

Listen (Ooh)


[Verse 1]

Now, now she loved me, shawty, I loved her

Used to jump up in the Maybach and roll out

Used to care, she used to share

The love that she used to give me can't be found

I lost my way, she said she'd stay

And lately, I've been sleeping with a ghost

My stock is down and out, I used to be worth my weight in gold

That was before a great depression kicked in and rocked us

And that was before the hurricane came in and stopped us

I told you to leave, but you lied to me when you said that

"Baby, no worries, I promise to get us back"


[Chorus]

I know sorries just wouldn't do it

Her heart is obliterated

I'm trying to travel through

But it's like moving mountains

It's like moving mountains, hey

But I keep climbing and hoping things would change

And the sky turns gray

And the water from the rain washes progress away

It's like moving mountains... (Moving mountains)

It's like moving mountains... (Moving mountains)

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Ooh, ooh

Be, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa


[Verse 2]

She, she don't touch me, I don't touch her

We rarely even ever say a word

I really want to give her everything she deserves

But the bad took away the good

She thinks that I'm full of it, arguments

Always pissed, man I'm tired

Every kiss that I miss

Girl, you know I'm trying

You never believe when I say

And I never believe it when you say

"I love you," and I shouldn't complain about it

I should take it like a man and walk up out it

'Cause we will never be the same, ooh

I've been standing in gas and you have been the flame


[Chorus]

I know sorries just wouldn't do it

Her heart is obliterated

I'm trying to get through

Gotta move this mountain

It's like moving mountains, hey

But I keep climbing and hoping things would change

And the sky turns gray

And the water from the rain washes progress away

It's like moving mountains... (Moving)

It's like moving mountains... (Moving)

Baby, why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?


[Bridge]

This must be a slow death that I'm traveling on

It feels so wrong, I'm barely holding on

See, no matter what it takes

I've gotta get it together, baby, yeah

And these hills that I'm traveling up

She ain't showing me love

I'm down on my love

Oh, I'm down, whoa


[Chorus]

I know sorries just wouldn't do it

Her heart is obliterated

I'm trying to travel through

But it's like moving mountains

It's like moving mountains (Moving this mountain, ayy)

But I keep climbing and hoping things would change

And the sky turns gray

And the water from the rain washes progress away

It's like moving a mountain

Steady trying to move this mountain

So, baby, why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be?

Why you just leave me

Just leave me be? Ooh, ooh


[Outro]

Baby, baby

Whoa, yeah
